Do you ever use a fireplace in Texas? I can't remember if Bill and Chrissy had one or not. I think maybe they did.

trust me, if the wind is right, those fires can move mighty fast. Like 100 meters a minute.

In the summer they just put buckets of ice on the grate with a fan behind it.

I just see a red X.

But what do I know....my linking ablity is way beyond below average.

*&%$#%^%.....I forgot my camera yesterday. Great game if you were a Michigan fan. Great fun. Great tailgate party at our son's Purdue grad's home just 3 blocks from the stadium. Not a good day for Purdue, but their cheerleaders were dressed much nicer than ours.......The Purdue folks were not impressesed by that fact.

Most all houses here have fireplaces - whether the owners ever use them is another matter. I seal mine up so we don't get so much cooling loss in the summertime.

Nothing like backing up to a toasty fire, but what a pain to deal with all the ashes, etc.

Cheers, Lynn

I notice the dream season of Northern Illinois came to a screeching halt.

My lads, Nevada got beat by Lousiana Tech. The Tech quarterback is pretty amazing and is expected to go high in the NFL draft next year. Thankfully! He has beat Nevada in all three of their games.
